    Getting TO/AROUND: Don't know precisely where this is at* - this was late August 2005, near San Giovanni underground - but works are underway for the 3rd Metropolitana line, Linea C

    *UPDATE* This is Porta San Giovanni, Via Appia Nova - opposite S Giovanni on Linea B **

    Can only be good news !

    Getting TO/AROUND: It is appalling - the length of time it took me to figure this ! We all know you wear out a few pairs of boots, the amount of walking you do in Rome. However , there is a great shortcut through the tunnel under the Quirinale, but it is never on any maps as they always show the Quirinale itself.
    It runs from very near the Trevi, just outside the Albert pub (see Nightlife Tip) in Via del Traforo to the short Via Milano, which leads to Via Nazionale. This is the main shopping street from Piazza Republicca (near Termini) to Piazza Venezia (Monumento Vittorio Emanuele II). A revelation when you first try it ! Not too many tourists in the know either as there is regularly just half a dozen - at very most - people walking it at any one time. Ther are small pavements(sidewalks) either side of the road.
